Why this wine glasse earns its place
Wine glasses come in two extremes: tiny glasses that signal you're being stingy, or oversized balloons that waste wine and cool it too fast. The Adora wine glasses sit in the honest middle. At 380ml, they hold a proper wine pour (150ml) with breathing room, and at 217mm tall, they're tall enough to keep your hand from warming the bowl.
The ribbed embossing on the bowl is the key detail. Those ribs create surface area inside the glass, which means wine gets more contact with oxygen and releases its aromatics more fully. It's not a gimmick—it's engineered aerating. Pour a wine into an Adora glass and you're not just serving it; you're helping it taste like itself.
Royal Leerdam's been making glass since 1765, and the Adora range carries that heritage. These are built for restaurant service and hospitality—durable stemware that survives thousands of pours, dishwasher-safe so you're not hand-washing at the end of a busy shift. The 85mm diameter and 217mm height create a proportioned silhouette that sits confidently on any table, whether it's a casual wine bar or an upscale restaurant.
